These types of firewalls are insanely complex when compared to your typical home linksys router, and that's a good thing because options and power, but it means you need to at least be passingly familiar with how things are set up so you can more easily troubleshoot when things aren't running as planned. Honestly I think it's a GOOD thing to learn to install and configure your own pfSense community edition.
Hopefully that helps? Feel free to reach out incase of other why don’t you offer pfsense as in install option when configuring the hardware? We provide a KB with loads of testing that we do with different OS's (and even specific VPN configurations like OpenVPN, and wireguard) to ensure that they work on our hardware and we'll even go as far as to help customers troubleshoot software issues if they appear to be reasonably adjacent to a potential hardware problem or conflict. We go way outside of the box to help customers not only get their hardware in order, but also resolve issues with OS's that they're trying to install. If unfamiliar, coreboot is an open source firmware that is MUCH more lightweight than a traditional BIOS, is custom built for the specific hardware, and is actually open source which is becoming more and more important at the firmware layer as we continue to learn about microcode and hardware vulnerabilities in closed ecosystems.įinally, we do pride ourselves on customer satisfaction, as reviews on Amazon and elsewhere will attest to. There's a lot of suspiciously similar looking hardware out there, but what I would offer as our commitment to our hardware is that we not only create the hardware design, but we also port and support coreboot ( ) firmware for our hardware. However, recent hardware (such as our FW4B, VP2410) is our own bespoke design. TBH, our original FW1 was just an off the shelf box that we sourced from China. That said, the Chinese market is full of knockoffs and copycats. Plenty of people have had plenty of success doing so. Second, there is certainly nothing wrong with much of the generic Chines hardware out there. (J/k, it's a reasonable comment and we're happy to address it). If I need to tone down the links and the sales pitch I'm happy to do so - please let me know.įirst, we will try not to take too much offense at the implied lack of creativity in just reselling "generic Chinese hardware".
That's not my intnet - i'm trying to highlight why many people may be more interested in purchasing from Protectli than generic hardware from China.
Mods, after reading my reply as follows, It's reading like a sales pitch.
